Wonderfully fun outing - We truly enjoyed our Alice in Wonderland tea. The characters interacting with us was so much. The boat is well maintained and all the little details for the tea and decor were beyond expectations. Food was great and so was the service. Everyone was so cheerful and kind. Can't wait to go again.

Loved the Tea Party experience - We had a wonderful time on the Barbara Lee for Jane Austen's 250th Birthday Tea Party. The trip on the paddle wheel boat was so fun. The tea service was great. I got to try about 8 or 9 tea types and the scones ,tea sandwiches , especially the cucumber ones,and sweet treats were yummy. Angie and Sydney(like Australia lol) were so attentive in taking care of our needs and questions. We had a wonderful time and will definitely return for more teas and other cruises. Rick was great making sure we got on and off safely. What a great crew and a Marvelous time. Thanks
